HomeMobile TutorialiPhoneThey are both Type-C, so why are they not compatible with Apple and Android?

For the iPhone 15, the biggest upgrade this year may be the replacement of the USB-C interface. With the dust settled on the Apple iPhone 15 using the Type-C interface, the Type-C interface has finally unified the world.


# Why use the word unity? This is naturally because Type-C is so widely used. Not only mobile phones other than Apple iPhone are equipped with this interface, but also mobile solid-state drives PSSD, digital cameras, home surveillance cameras, driving recorders and other messy things. They are all used, so it’s not too much to cheer everyone. Finally, you can use the same data cable and charger.


They are both Type-C, so why are they not compatible with Apple and Android?


But they are also Type-C and are not universal for Apple and Android! Because Apple has encrypted the C port of the new phone, this also means that those without MFi certification may not be able to pair it for use.


Not only that, the Type-C interface speeds of various versions of Apple iPhone15 are also different!


The standard iPhone 15’s Type-C interface speed may be limited to 480Mbps, which is the level of USB 2.0. The Type-C interface of the Pro version of iPhone 15 will reach 20Gbps, which is the USB3.2 Gen2x2 standard. It may even directly support Thunderbolt 3 technology with a rate of up to 40Gbps. This is mainly because the iPhone 15 still uses the previous generation A16 processor and still only supports USB2.0 data transmission. The Pro version will be equipped with the latest A17 processor, providing support for USB3.2 and even Thunderbolt. In addition to the bandwidth of the processor, the internal differences of the Type-C interface will also lead to different supported speeds. After all, now USB2.0, USB3.2 and Thunderbolt can all be made into Type-C, and support high-power fast charging and Type-C for video output is even called full-featured Type-C.


By not allowing the USB-C interface of the iPhone 15 to be used with Android phones, Apple can earn billions of dollars in additional revenue through MFI certification and patent fees. However, today's mobile phone market is growing slowly. If Apple and Android Type-C are not compatible, the sales of iPhone15 mobile phones will be affected. Then Apple's doing so will be detrimental to its own development!
